In this weekly class, learners will gain social skills and develop friendships while playing this popular Roblox game in my safe private neighborhood (like a server). On weeks when we have new learners joining the class, some gaming etiquette and safety tips will be shared while we play. Creativity will blossom as we roleplay open-ended scenarios. Learners can learn and share game tips, build and decorate their own house, explore the city, throw a party, get a job to earn in-game money and so much more. Come play with us! For the safety and privacy of all learners, class recordings will not be shared.
Learning Goals
Students will gain social skills and increased creativity as we play "Welcome to Bloxburg" together on a safe, private Roblox server.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
Roblox gamer tags will need to be shared in order to play on my private server (learners will friend the teacher) While students will be playing on a safe, private server during this class, the Roblox game itself has many different games with public servers. Players can freely accept and send friend requests to other students within the game unless parental controls are set.
Supply List
Students must have access to Roblox and purchase the game "Welcome to Bloxburg" for 25 Robux in order to play.

Teacher expertise and credentials
My name is Christine, but in 2021, many of my learners started calling me by the nickname Ms. Wish after my gamer handle. I love it and it stuck!
I am a former private school classroom teacher and current homeschooling mom. I have taught students from infants to senior citizens in various subjects, though I have a special affinity for video gaming, music, math, theater, and language.
On Outschool, I teach mostly social gaming clubs as I have found a need for learners to socialize while playing their favorite online games in a safe and supervised environment. In these classes, students build important social skills needed to have fun and stay safe in an online gaming environment. I am a strong believer that much learning happens through play! Like Maria Montessori said "play is the work of the child." These days much play happens in the virtual world, and as a lifelong gamer I choose to embrace it!
I have had a passion for teaching since I was in 3rd Grade and was selected for a program that allowed a few students to tutor 1st-grade students in reading and math. Since then, I have worked as a teacher/tutor my entire adult life. I have a Bachelor's in Liberal Studies with a concentration in music and have received training in the Kodaly Method of teaching music to young learners. My instrument of choice is my voice.
I have a gentle and playful teaching style built on mutual respect. My favorite quote is from Stephen Sondheim's Into the Woods, "Careful the things you say. Children will listen. Careful the things you do. Children will see and learn."
When I am not teaching, I enjoy hiking and rediscovering the wonders of nature with my son.
I am looking forward to seeing your learner in class!Reviews
